the Norwegian dog breeder Hygen in the 19th century. Inspired by the idea of creating a hardy breed, he crossed Holsteiner hounds with various types of Scandinavian and Norwegian hounds. The result was an excellent hunting dog that was named after its creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hygenhund almost immediately became a sought-after breed among Norwegian hunters. The hound adapted to any terrain in the harshest weather conditions. It pursued the most diverse game. Unfortunately, the breed did not gain much popularity outside the country.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"appearance\">Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Hygen Hound is usually a muscular dog with a strong build. The chest is deep and long; the back is straight. The abdomen is slightly trim. The head is usually wide, the skull is convex, and the transition from forehead to muzzle is well defined. The ears are short, floppy, and wide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The limbs are powerful and strong. The tail is thick at the base and narrows towards the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The coat is short, shiny. The color is very diverse. Usually, it is a basic reddish background with white and black inclusions.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"character\">Character<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Hygen Hound is famous not only for its hunting qualities.
